Pass the Salt worksheet Monday 4-16-12

Emotional Language: Remember when I spoon fed you soup when you were sick? Well, the least you could do to pay me back is to pass the salt.

Cause and Effect: If you don't pass the salt, then I will have to sit here and eat salt-less, unappealing food.

Generalizations: All teenagers love to put delicious salt on their food, so why do I have to be the exception?

Rhetorical Question: Are you really just going to sit there and not pass the salt?

Downplaying: While your just sitting there, why don't you simply pass the salt to someone closer to me so you don't have to reach all the way to me?

Analogy: This food is so bland without salt that it tastes like paper. But it could turn into an exquisite meal if you just pass the salt...
